Mine is a 2 bdrm unit in Blk 39B so my washine machine location is stowed under a hardtop table, which i am restricted to using only a front loading type, making it difficult to access the tap and drainage pipe behind unless i move the machine out. Which is quite a tough job bc its freaking heavy !
